Re: Cockpit
Ren swallowed hard, if he'd had time to eat earlier, it probably would have come up, even it was still hard for him to fight back tears. Not for himself exactly, although for him and Acacia yes, but even more for the crew, for Kale who strove make things better for everyone. For Geoff, Wei and Connor who joined up because Kale was a good man and they thought he'd give them a fair chance. Most mostly for Lei and Charlie, the relative innocents, the ones who deserved a better chance. Even then, he wondered in the back of his mind, if Rhaef was right to get out when he did.
Funny thing was Ren knew better, if Rhaef were here he'd be down in the cargo bay, sneering ready to fight with the Reavers. Or better he'd probably under the ship cutting them loose. Fighting to the last, just like all of them. So would Ren. He steeled his nerves against the fear he felt, turned back to the consoles, since the first day he'd sat in this chair, this ship felt like an extension of him, of his mind and his reflexes.
Ren began looking at the charts and maps and station schematics, anything to give him a clue, a chance, a glimmer of a way out and around the Reavers. If they were going down, they were going down fighting.
